To get some more wear out of my summer dress I refashioned a cardigan. It was a long and oversized RTW cardigan that just wasn't working for me. I forgot to take 'before' pictures, but the wonky hemline hit sort of just above the knee. I shortened it about 20 inches / 50 cm and used the cut offs for a 2 inch / 5 cm wide band to finish the hem and to make the ties. Easy job, but I'm really happy with the result.
Have a nice weekend!
Love this outfit!
ReplyDeleteAs I don't remember the original cardigan, I think this is a perfect case of saved by the scissors!
Great save. Looks lovely with your new dress.
